Leenock was behind for alot of the game, he didn't spot the quick 3rd untill very late.... did you watch the same game I did? :| He always defends against bunker/marine and hellion pressure losing barely any units while expanding faster. That gets him an advantage. | ||

(and I mean literally, that's what he said after July lost yesterday)) in all of these games, the real damage is coming from drops. If you hold off the drops you can fight the army. I also encourage dropping and worming vs the terran in lategame because vikings are slow and ghosts cant stim. ghsot academies are really easy to snipe with a ling drop. | ||

(and I mean literally, that's what he said after July lost yesterday)) Yeah I have seen it win alot too but Mvp was actually the first person I have seen make the proper amount of ghosts. Terrans tend to do what Yoda just did, sorta dip their foot in ghosts. I guess only time will tell on how effective ghosts truely are, but I suspect that the age of ghosts hasn't even began. | ||

If there arent enough tanks mass t1 can just run it over and also Yoda losing those bases meant he didnt have the gas to make 20 ghosts. | ||

MVP had more bases and he still had his tanks so he could also make right amount of ghosts. Also July didnt make BL so he didnt have to spend gas on vikings. Edit: he didnt really make BL until the game was pretty much over. | ||

And he was taking out tanks with only lings, not wasting his banelings until absolutely necessary. | ||
